NH Legislature Must Support Overturning Citizens United

We call on New Hampshire's legislature to support a constitutional amendment to prevent outside spenders, including billionaires and big businesses from buying our democracy.

Why is this important?

We call on the New Hampshire state legislature to support a constitutional amendment overturning the 2010 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission (FEC). Since this flawed decision, New Hampshire has faced a deluge of outside spending. In the 2014 congressional election, outside groups spent more than 49 million dollars on three congressional races in New Hampshire- one of the highest amounts of outside spending in the nation. We believe that this is unacceptable.
